I’m not one to shy away from expressing unpopular opinions. So here goes. I saw Fury Road. I get why people like it. But it isn’t feminist.

It makes me profoundly sad that mainstream pop culture now interprets feminism to mean “women can drive fast and stoically kill people too!”
-
We’re starved for representations of powerful women but we need to re-imagine concepts of power & move beyond the glorification of violence.

@femfreq All your points are super valid. But saying "it's not feminism"? Can't there be different forms of progress? Is this none at all? - 1 more reply

@JessiSheron@femfreq Think feminism covers much more than that, but as a woman who
post-apoc, was incred moved to see a woman as lead. -
@aphotic_ink@femfreq not just furiosa! the movie is FLOODED with wonderful 3 dimensional ladies, I LOVED ALL OF THEM. AND NUX

@femfreq It doesn't seem like a film that could be truly feminist, but at least for once it's something everyone can enjoy. -
Having seen the film now, I now officially redact this statement. Fury Road's definitely feminist, and the best action film I've ever seen.

@femfreq These are all really interesting points Anita. -
@theronster@femfreq Anita? That's Jonathan Mcintosh. -
@PlnkRlbbonScars@femfreq If you say so, I didn’t see an author post on those tweets. -
@theronster@femfreq Mhm. Jonathan uses her as a puppet to spread his views because no one listens to him on his personal account. -
@PlnkRlbbonScars@femfreq I just said, I don’t care what you say. Bye. - 1 more reply
